Battery pack RB 1 (for WiCo):
If during operation the battery pack
RB 1 (rechargeable battery) be-
comes fully discharged, the device
(Station) will continue to run or is shut down depending on
the value settings for “Time Out”, “Safe Speed” and “Safe
Temperature”� If the device is set so that it continues to run
when the battery of the WiCo is fully discharged, the only
means of switching the station off are the “safe STOP”,
“ON/OFF” key and the “Mains switch”!
Please note the following safe-
ty instructions for the battery
pack RB 1 (rechargeable bat-
tery):
• Keep the battery pack out of reach of children at all times�
• Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place�
• Never throw the battery pack into a fire� Keep it away
from direct sunlight and temperatures above 60 °C� High
temperatures will damage the battery pack and render
it unusable� Temperatures above 100 °C may cause it to
explode�
• Never throw the battery pack into water or expose it to
moisture� Water may lead to a short-circuit, causing the
battery pack to explode�
• Do not deform or crush the battery pack or damage it in
any other way� This can cause battery fluid to leak and/or
the battery pack to explode�
• When not in use, keep battery packs away from pa-
perclips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects which could cause the contacts to be bridged�
Short-circuiting may result in an explosion�
• After a power failure during operation, the device may
start automatically (depending on operating mode)�
• Transport the device with care�
• Do not transport or empty the bath while it is still hot/
cold� This may result in accidents, especially scalding inju-
ries or frostbite�
Because of the heavy weight of the
device, at least two persons are
needed for carrying the device�
CAUTION
Risk of burning caused by vapor or
hot water at the outlet of the cool-
ing coil�
Don’t use following fluids:
- Untreated tap water
- Acids or bases
- Solutions with halides: chlorides, fluorides, bromides,
iodides or sulfur
- Bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite)
- Solution with chromates or chromium salts
- Glycerine
- Ferrous water�
When changing the bath fluid, re-
move the remaining water from the
complete system (including hoses
and external devices)� When doing this, also open the
stopper and union nuts caps of the pump outputs and
inputs and blow compressed air through all the pump
outputs and inputs! Beware of the risk of burning due to
delay in boiling!
Fluids:
Beware of the risk of burning due
to delay in boiling!
Only use fluids, which fulfill the re-
quirements for safety, health and
device compatibility� Be aware of
the chemical hazards that may be associated with the bath
fluid used� Observe all safety warnings for the fluids�
• Depending on the bath fluid used and the type of opera-
tion, toxic or flammable vapors can arise� Ensure suitable
extraction�
• Do not use any fluid which may cause dangerous reac-
tions during processing�
• Only use recommended bath fluid� Only use non-acid and
non corroding fluid�
Only process and heat up any fluid
that has a flash point higher than
the adjusted safe temperature limit
that has been set� The safe temperature limit must always
be set to at least 25 ºC lower than the flash point of the
fluid used� Examine regularly the function of the safety
temperature limiter�
Never operate the device without
sufficient heat carrier fluid! Check
the fluid level detection at a regular
basis (see the chapter “Filling and draining”)�
• Continuous monitoring of the bath and the filling level of
the bath fluid is required, especially at high temperatures�
• To ensure a sufficient fluid circulation, the viscosity of the
bath fluid at the lowest operating temperature must not
exceed a value of 50 mm

/s�
If water is used at higher tempera-
ture, there is heavy loss of fluid due
to the evaporation of the steam�
• Untreated tap water is not recommended� It is recom-
mended to use distilled water or high purity water (ion ex-
changers) and add 0�1 g soda (sodium carbonate Na

)
/liter, to reduce corrosive properties�
